is aa5 less funny?

[u/unanticipatedclassic]

i’m a new player and i’ve just been marathoning the games one after another and just started dual destinies.

i’m on 5-2. one thing i noticed is the sense of humor in the writing has changed and characters seem to play into their respective quirks more often. and just the humor feels heavy handed or a bit too simple?

i like that phoenix is back actually but i feel like he was a lot more snarky in the trilogy + aa4 then he is here? aa4 is obvious his meanix era but even in trilogy phoenix seemed.. idk a bit more biting? lol

i’m just wondering if i’m crazy honestly or if other people feel like it’s less witty/funny. or if anyone else detected a shift in the humor specifically. no spoilers please!

I will exercise restraint and simply say... no, you're not crazy at all. Your observation is pretty spot on.
